Hmm, why do you think this makes IBM the technology's "owner"? What do you mean by owner exactly?
- itaysk 11y agoMaybe owner is not the right word. But IBM is definitely going to be associated with this technology in an exclusive manner. Like when you say Bootstrap or Storm you have to mention it's by Twitter, or when you talk about AngularJS you'd mention it by Google. They are all open and open source, but the main sponsor is always taking over the mind share. In this case I suggest that IBM can become to Spark what Google is for Angular without even being there from the start. Dumb idea? maybe...
